The European Union and National Defence Policy
About this book
The European Union and National Defence Policy (1997) focusses on the role that European integration has played in shaping the defence policies of various European countries. The editors have brought together an impressive array of contributors, who consider the pressures on state policy emanating from the process of integration. The book is divided into three distinct parts: the first outlines the tortuous history of attempts to link defence with European integration and highlights some recent initiatives. The second part includes studies of the four larger member states – France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom, as well as a chapter on the Netherlands – providing an insight into the different national factors that condition the impact of EU action. The final part considers the key questions of nuclear weapons and arms procurement policies.
